First up Mad Catz has teamed up with Major League Gaming to bring PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 users the MLG Pro Circuit Controller. This controller should be able to take any and all abuse you can dish out as it has “tournament grade components” to not let you down in the heat of battle. The second accessory Mad Catz is bringing you is the Cyborg F.R.E.Q. 5 Pro Gaming Headset For PC and Mac. The F.R.E.Q. 5 Pro Gaming Headset is equipped with a metal headband and 50mm Neodymium drivers which should deliver crisp sound and the metal should mean the part most broken on headsets stays intact longer. Check out the gallery for all the visual goodness and both press releases below.
